This week, we are meeting with Francesco Marini , he is the 3rd generation and Designer and Inovation manager at Marini Industrie. 

The history of Marini group went on with Riccardo and Roberto Marini, Mario’s sons. Thanks to their enthusiasm and their passionate vision, they carried on this beautiful story made in Italy.

The third generation of the company, with a highly specialized technical-stylistic staff, made the family even greater enclosing under the group near the historic brand Marini&Cecconi, also Ospiti del Mondo, Marini Tessuti Uomo and Assotex.

The four brands under Marini group continue to tell a story that makes fashion happen everyday. Research on materials and textures is the daily bread of the company, creating what stays behind the most popular fashion brands in the world.
